Increased red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has been associated with adverse outcomes in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluated the relationship between RDW and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in ...

We investigated whether the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) can predict stent thrombosis (STh) and high mortality rate in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We analyzed data of 102 ...

Hematologic parameters such as mean platelet volume (MPV), red cell distribution width (RDW), and neutrophil to lymphocyte (N/L) ratio are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effect of ...

Objective: The total burden of subclinical coronary artery disease (CAD) is significant among young adults. Serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and fetuin-A are established predictors of morbidity and mortality ...

Aım Vitamin D deficiency is common and may contribute to cardiovascular diseases. We hypothesized that serum vitamin D (25OHD) levels would be inversely associated with inflammation and with diastolic dysfunction. We ...

Background: The impact of fat distribution, muscle mass, and muscle strength on no-reflow and severity of coronary artery disease in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Objective: ...

We assessed the prognostic value of the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). Patients (n = 440) with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who underwent pPCI were divided ...
